Sandwell Local Plan - Reg 19 Publication
Representation ID: 1427

Respondent: Sport England
Sport England supports part 5 of the policy that states new and redeveloped education facilities should include provision for wider community use of sports and other facilities where this would be in accordance with evidence of need, secured through a suitably worded community use agreement as this aligns with Sport England's approach to making most effective use of local community facilities to deliver sport and physical activity.
Sport England supports part 7 of the policy that identifies that the loss of part or the whole of an education facility will only be permitted where alternative provision is available to meet the needs of the community since this also helps protect the supply of community available sports facilities at education sites in the Borough.
